Just finished uploading a band of old Citadel pre-slotta dwarves into the shop. Dour little chaps, but then after nearly 30 years of battles I suppose they have a right to be.

Also in the upload is the DS1 Dwarf Cannon & Crew. All the members are there, loader, gunner, spotter etc, along with the all important cannon. Properly painted it would make a wonderful diorama piece.

As usual click the pics for more info.

From the old to the brand new now, things to come in Reaper Bones

Reaperclark pops by the MH forum on a semi regular basis to drop off the latest news from Reaper. These are his latest offerings which will be appearing in the Bones range sometime in the future.

Wamp have got together with Reaper Miniatures and have organised a painting competition. So as a Reaper stockist its only right that I help out a bit.

All Wamp members will get a gift certificate for 10% of their total order value, not including shipping costs, when they buy Reaper miniatures from the MH shop. You’ll be able to use this against any future purchase of any items in the shop.

Just type in your Wamp forum name in the comments box when you check out, and I’ll send you your certificate.

You can purchase as many times as you wish until the offer ends, but you must be a member of WAMP at the time of purchase.

Offer ends 31st October 2012

Competition details below.

It’s new competition time and this month we have the very greatest pleasure of announcing that it’s in conjunction with one of the hobbies giants, Reaper Miniatures.Reapers catalogue of miniatures is extensive and there are plenty of themes to choose from so we hope as many of you as possible enter and show Reaper why the WAMP comps are the best in the entire hobby.Deadlines

The latest edition of Wamp’s Portal emagazine has just hit the web. Full of product reviews, tutorials and lots of superbly painted eye candy miniatures.

I’m pleased to have my interview with long time customer and friend Brett Reavis published too. Great guy and a very interesting article. I think he’s also a prime contender for the largest lead mountain currently admitted to.

Wamp have also organised a competition that is sponsered by Reaper. Check out the rules etc in the magazine and have think about what you might enter.

My Mirliton order is on its way, so the long wait is nearly over. A big thank you to all those who have been patiently waiting for their orders. Not much longer now!

Reaper have dropped their free worldwide shipping policy for orders over $ 25.00. Please bear this in mind if you are planning to order from them directly. On the plus side, I’m always happy to get orders in, and by ordering through Miniature-Heroes you don’t have to pay the customs charge either.

Now the dust from their kickstarter is starting to settle Reaper are getting back into their more normal release routine. These are new out and available to pre-order. Just click the pic for more details.

They’ve also released a preview shot of a new miniature that is going to make the bones range in March. Its a female cloud giant, by Patrick Keith. No idea of price yet, but as its going to be bones plastic I think it will be as attractive as the sculpt.

I’ve also released another batch of Citadel classics into the pre-owned section.

And finally, as a favour to a friend and neighbour I have great pleasure in presenting Superfastsocks.co.uk All the socky goodness you’ll ever need!
